PRACTICALLY ALL MODS WILL NOT WORK AS OF 2020 UNLESS YOU PUT THE FILE THAT YOU EXECUTE INTO "OFFLINE" MODE VIA THE BOTTOM LEFT OF BLCMM.  THIS DOES NOT PREVENT MATCHMAKING, RATHER IT IS A
METHOD TO FIX MODS NOT WORKING DUE TO SOME UNINTENTIONAL CHANGES TO BL2 FROM GEARBOX.




ALL OF MY MODS WILL NOT WORK IF YOU DO NOT HEX EDIT YOUR GAME AGAIN IF YOU
HAVE NOT PLAYED SINCE THE FIGHT FOR SANCTUARY DLC OR THE UHD GRAPHICS
UPDATE!

DO NOT USE BLCMM TO HEX EDIT YOUR GAME, BUT USE IT FOR EVERYTHING ELSE!

THE "UHD" UPDATE CHANGED THE EXE SO YOU WILL HAVE TO USE THE FOLLOWING TO
HEX EDIT IT FOR THE CONSOLE AFTER VERIFYING YOUR FILES VIA STEAM:

IF YOUR GAME REFUSES TO ACTUALLY START, LOOK FOR "ddraw.dll" IN YOUR WIN32
FOLDER IN YOUR BL2 BINARIES DIRECTORY, THEN DELETE IT.




THIS MOD MUST BE MERGED IN BLCMM TO BE USED CORRECTLY!
OFFICIAL DOWNLOAD FOR THE TOOL IS AS FOLLOWS

Version 3.0

Added support for Reborn, Exodus, BL2.5, BLassic, UCP, Rarity Color Fix.
Added a name for an unknown rarity, which is now known to be Echo Log rarity thanks to a bug report.
Added a version number to the file itself and organized the file and added some other stuff for debugging stuff easier.



GENERAL OVERVIEW

You can change the the type of time each rarity uses in X mod or vanilla, then change the time it takes for that type of time to cause the same rarity item to shrink and despawn.  This means that you can make whites, greens, e-techs despawn in 0.01 seconds after spawning, while blues despawn in 30 seconds, legendaries despawn on map exiting, etc.  This mod is really customizable and should allow you to do most of what you need.

I wrote this mod due to the fact that I ran some mods that caused a single enemy to drop around 5-10 items, while making their respawn delay very short.  This excess loot resulted in major FPS loss, crash to desktops by traveling, inventory issues and loss of game functionality.

In short, this mod allows the player to select a plethora of options and edit them to specific user preferences.
Some of which allow the user to change the time in which certain rarities of loot shrink and despawn.

Examples of some loot bearing objects that are changed: items that are dropped on the floor, found in chests, unwrapped in a Christmas train, scavenged from ammo boxes and more!

This was originally fully customizable in Version 1.25 and as of Version 2.0, this and various other options are available.


If you watch the video, look at the top right for an example of the FPS boost.


I couldn't make a proper video on it but with 500 FPS dropped to 40 with loot, the FPS can go back up to around the same.
